Lyrics Rory Gallagher

Rory Gallagher

Cradle Rock

If I was a cradle, then you'd let me rock

If I was a pony, then you'd let me trot

If I was the atom, you'd split me into three

When I wanna see you baby, don't you lock on me

If I was a baby, you wouldn't let me fall

If I was an outlaw, you wouldn't have me caught

If I was a tiger, you wouldn't have me caged

If I was somebody else then you would act your age

You'll miss out if you, leave me out of, of your

Day and night, I been trying to make you see that

Hear what I got to say

It's all about me and you

If I was a blind man, then you'd make me see

If I was a deaf man, you'd give me ears to hear

If I was a lame man, you'd give me your legs to walk

But if you were true to me baby, then listen to when I talk

If I was a cradle, then you'd let me rock

If I was a pony, then you'd let me trot

If I was the atom, split me into three

When I wanna see you baby, don't you lock on me

Would you, would you, let me rock, let me rock? Yeah
